Round 34 officially over
The final decision of the block to hit VsN instead of Ascendancy has imo, tipped this round over and Ascendancy have once again proven dominant.. even without there machine-like players.

Re: Round 34 officially over
Maybe the block just sees an "anti-block" (VsN/App/Asc) and try to hit the supposedly weakest link, who knows...

Re: Round 34 officially over
If Apprime decide to go for the win, would VisioN side with them, or Asc, or sit by the side?

Apprime are outroiding Ascendancy by a considerably margin so they are on track to win to be honest.
Who wins will depend greatly on who ND/Euph/DLR want to focus their attacks on. With that in mind my money is on Ascendancy as Apprime politics seem to be terrible.

Re: Round 34 officially over
App/Vsn/Asc are going to be busy with euph/nd/dlr for the rest of the round. There is vengeance to be had.

Re: Round 34 officially over
Unless one of them switches sides at the last moment to secure a win.
Or VsN doesn't like getting roided. They did so well staying out of trouble.

Re: Round 34 officially over
While organised targetting of VsN would perhaps make them drop out of the block at some point, doing so is basically the same as saying, "here you go Ascendancy/Apprime, have another round win!"
As for who's going to win, I guess we both have a shot to take it, but my money is on Ascendancy, as it has been from the start.

Re: Round 34 officially over
I'll put my money on Apprime this time. It's a matter of how long Vsn can take the pounding before they lose interest in logging in, and then the block should go for Asc.

Re: Round 34 officially over
VSN has picked a side, it is normal that war is brought to them. I'm sure even them didn't think they would just enjoy happy roiding with Asc/App respecting the nap and the other side leaving them alone.

Re: Round 34 officially over
Hitting VsN seemed a pretty sensible thing to do if they couldn't get them to change sides. Afaik Asc have never had their morale broken in a war and I don't think this block is enough to do that (unless they suddenly got a load of better BCs and members who can keep up 24/7 attacking?).
Just in case the war goes on for a significant time, it only takes a night or 2 to cut down VsN's roids and seriously reduce their income for the next weeks, not to mention the boost to your own morale and the possibility of persuading them to back down.
It looks like Apprime have proven to be more easily roidable than Asc, despite their impressive attacking. The only way I see them winning are if the block concentrates entirely on Asc all the time, or Apprime switch to hitting Asc at some point.
I think the most likely outcome is that Asc/Apprime/VsN will win the block war, Apprime get crumbled by Asc if they're in front, or Apprime go begging other alliances for help. But they've left it too late and everyone tells them to go fist themselves.

Re: Round 34 officially over
Vsn roided really well when left alone, I'm not sure how much good this will do. Thus far its clear that Euphoria/DLR have benefited immensely from the sacrifice of ND/Subh/CT during this war and have avoided incs. Will be interesting to see how well they do if the focus changes to them.

You actually mean to say is that ND/Euph/DLR or whoever will never hit 1:2 anyway?

If you don't care about #1 at all then yeah sure. Then again that's hardly that surprising given the nature of this block.

We'd have to be retarded to target Euphoria or DLR. They are not competition to our potential #1 finish.

I don't doubt you do your share, and that wasn't really the point of my post either.
I'm just saying it's generally much easier to keep morale up if you're not the one with 2-3 uncovered waves each morning.

Re: Round 34 officially over
Lots of retardation around this round. Still enjoying it tho
Whoever thought VsN would back out of their deal with asc/app because of a gangbang must be lobotomized. If anything you only concreted the fact that we will NOT back down It's actually fun to lose roids as long as you know your side is still winning due to the oppositions retardation
Edit:
Yes, retardation is my "word of the day", deal with it!

Re: Round 34 officially over
Well we had 3 options:
-Continue to slowly grind down Ascendancy at 4-5% a day (outcome: Apprime win)
-Do the same to Apprime (outcome: Ascendancy win)
-Take the free roids on offer from Vision (outcome: Ascendancy and Apprime both still in the picture for the time being)
Hitting Apprime or Asc the last two days wouldn't have stopped ND losing roids, nor would it have put ND in with a better shot than what we've done by hitting Vision. Yes, we'd hoped Vision would be more readily persuaded by the first night of incs and would have accepted our NAP offer last night (it was on the table for anyone who cares) but even without it the small chance of an ND win hasn't really been effected by the events of the last 2 nights and if VisioN had taken the NAP we'd be in a stronger position.
Basically I think most people have seen that it's been a 2 horse race for about 4-5 days now and suggesting that the decision to hit VisioN was what decided the round is ludicrous.

Wow. I mean wow. I mean words fail me. I don't think ND would have won anyways but pretending that hitting a random fat alliance in the other block is no different to hitting the leading alliance in terms of helping the leading alliance in your own block is just outright retarded.
I'll help spell it out for you. By hitting an alliance you're more likely to curtail their score growth than you are by not hitting them. Curtailing an alliance's score growth means its competitors do better relatively speaking.
You had 3 options because of the way you (general you) approached the round by gathering a five or six alliance block to hit one particular alliance because you (specific you this time as it was DLR and euphoria) were too shit to deal with them yourselves. You forced Ascendancy into dealing with Apprime out of fear at being left out. You decided that instead of appealing to Vision's willingness to balance the round in 3/4 days when Ascendancy and Apprime took the lead you'd be better off hitting them now, taking their roids for your planets and hoping they'd join you afterwards. You then tried offering Apprime a nap if they'd join you in hitting ascendancy (and god knows you've probably offered the same to Ascendancy by now). I hope they all roid your precious planets into dust.
I mean the track record of most people in your block seems to mostly consist of varying methods of how to lose rounds when you outnumber the other side horrifically. It's just cringe-worthy at this stage. The best part is the number of excuses everyone manages to come up with afterwards. Attempting to paint this as a scenario where you just couldn't do anything and found yourselves forced into a corner when you've had the political initiative and numbers on your side for the entire round is derisory. Try and fight an actual war at some point in the next fifteen rounds please.

So what you're saying is that your block consisting of some 380 members are not able to stagnate the growth of 2 allies consisting of 114 members, so you rather decided to focus on a single ally of 57 members because it's free roids? Ye, thats not retardation at all, its just incompetance beyond retardation...

Basically I think most people have seen that it's been a 2 horse race for about 4-5 days now and suggesting that the decision to hit VisioN was what decided the round is ludicrous.

With this defencive mentality it's clear that you never even believed in yourself. You had a huge advantage in numbers, score and roids, and you still thought it was a 2 horse race between asc and app...? GG!

Edit:
Yes, retardation is my "word of the day", deal with it!

I don't think the block is doing this to get Vision to back down on their deal. But hitting them is a logical choice. Thumbs up for Tobbe for waking up to send def and DC, but Vision is not only Tobbe, and they are the weakest link to break. Sure, Asc and Apprime are benefitting from the block not hitting them these last days, but the round has still some 2 weeks left i think, and Vsn should break in a couple of days. Then the block can concentrate on either Asc or Apprime. The interesting thing will be the reaction of the ally that gets lucky. Will they turn on their partner to seize the win?

Somehow I doubt it. A round win granted to you on the back of the other guy getting hit by a really large block is totally worthless.

That is not what he said though. He didn't say hitting Vsn is no different than hitting Asc. He said that ND would have been targetted / lost roids, no matter who they target in the block.
NDs decision is a calculated risk. They think concentrating on Vsn now will give them a better chance to deal with Asc later.

Maybe they don't need to. Maybe they only need to see the block concentrating on Asc, and add some members for the last mile needed to win. There are a couple of now unallied players sitting in top gals gathering score.

Re: Round 34 officially over
I only speak for myself here, but if i had to choose between winning the round as an ally, and roiding the enemy dry, I'd choose roiding the enemy dry. Hopefully both will happen though!

Now unless you want to start talking about how totally random things are really the same due to "political actions"... but at that point you could say that hitting nobody and gathering some roids off roiding random newbie planets is the way forward. Even if you want to considering the fact that Vision haven't exactly backed off I'm still going with "wow, that was retarded".
